    Also a good idea once you're there, to stick a piece of wide masking tape on top, to note what you found about it, if it's worth noting

    One of my concerns would be the personal information that may still be on there. What do I do about that? I'd hate to be involved in someone getting their hands on personal information.

    A lot of the guys buy one of the lil kits on Ebay then use a good free program to wipe the drives.

    Kit; USB 2.0 to IDE SATA S-ATA 2.5 3.5 HD HDD Adapter Cable | eBay

    Here's one of the programs used by some of the guys; Disk Wipe - Free software
    P & M Recycling - Specializing in E-Waste Recycling.
    If you enjoy your freedom, thank a vet.
